5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific live album!
So many live albums sound like muffled, hard-to-hear, jumbled messes. But this one transports you there! You really feel like you're part of the crowd. What a great performer. If only I could see her for real! You should also check out "Live at Yoshi's" - another truly great disc!

3.0 out of 5 stars Dee Dee does it again. Great Jazz
Dee Dee did a fine job on this Memory of music and Jazz.
But she missed my tastes in this.
I did enjoy her but it's more contemporary music on here than I prefer.
It's great music and Dee Dee is always good.
But bring on original Jazz and Blues or old Blues and Jazz and I am much more of a happy camper.....
I am a old guy who likes good...

5.0 out of 5 stars Dee Dee Bridgewater and her band in harmony, November 30, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: In Montreux (Audio CD)
Dee Dee Bridgewater and her excellent band capture the life experience of the fantastic Montreaux concert on this lovely album. Those who have seen the concert probably already have this album, if not, they should get it. For those who havn't seen the concert, this album can give a lovely glimpse at Dee Dee Bridgewaters incredible performing style. Even on this recording, you can feel her presence, her wonderful connection to the audience and her exquisite handling of the band. The band in turn is a blessing to Ms. Bridgewater's voice and energy, and is probably among the finest you can hear these days.

Im My Humble Opinion, Dee Dee's rendition of Night In Tunasia is the Very Best available; she seems to 'put more into it' than any others.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great concert album, July 17, 2007
This review is from: In Montreux (Audio CD)
Amazing and swinging, Dee Dee Bridgewater really shines on the live albums I have heard so far!

Competent enough in singing various jazz styles, here she even tackles Jobim's "How insensitive" (although it is not the peak performance of the album: she's perhaps too hot to handle Jobim's gentle touch).

But her Horace Silver medley is, I believe, superior to her later album devoted the composer's works and, between that medley, "Just Friends", and "Night in Tunisia" it's hard for me to pick the favorite number.
But, to be honest, I am a Dee Dee fan...
